Dive into the rich tapestry of Renaissance polyphony with Cristobal de Morales' masterful compositions, presented in this exquisite 2023 release from Hyperion. This album showcases two of Morales' early masses, the Missa Mille regretz and the Missa Desilde al cavallero, alongside the Magnificat Primi Toni. Morales, a Spanish composer of the Renaissance period, is renowned for his expressive and innovative choral writing, and this collection is a testament to his enduring legacy.
The Missa Mille regretz is based on a famous chanson by Josquin des Prez, demonstrating Morales' skill in adapting and transforming existing material into something uniquely his own. The Missa Desilde al cavallero, on the other hand, draws from a Spanish secular song, blending Morales' Spanish heritage with his mastery of the polyphonic style. The Magnificat Primi Toni is a stunning example of Morales' ability to create complex, interweaving vocal lines that build to a powerful and moving climax.
This album is a treasure trove for fans of choral music, offering over an hour of beautifully performed Renaissance polyphony. The De Profundis ensemble, under the direction of Eamonn Dougan and Robert Hollingworth, brings their considerable expertise to these works, delivering a performance that is both historically informed and deeply expressive. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast of Renaissance music or a newcomer to the genre, this album offers a captivating exploration of one of the most significant composers of the era.
